Finally got my parts car unburied and in my own garage. The steering feels much better on the parts car, but it has I assume a later model steering box ('70) My driver is at best guess a 69 (some if

Hey, thanks for all of the tips we've received so far on a number of things. We just tightened up the steering via the screw on top of the steering box, but now I have a few questions: 1. We tightene

The steering box is full of oil, not grease. But I don't know the correct amount of "play" in the steering wheel. Bob Wilson Hey, thanks for all of the tips we've received so far on a number of thing

Bob Wilson is correct; I have used 90W gear oil. Careful of the oil fill cover nut, it is plastic and strips out easily. 3/8" - 1/2" left-right play at the rim (stock wheel) is regarded as OK. You ap

I have heard that if you pump the steering box full of grease it will help with the play - effectively tighten up the box. Does this work? My '66 box is getting loose and thought about trying this. P

Yes you can overtighten the box. Because the center is worn more than the outer parts, such as when you make a sharp turn, the box will bind when turning the wheel. You can't get rid of all the play
